I don't know if the person who started this was advertising, however, as I mentioned I have been to this resort and now stayed there.
I have very mixed feelings. The Dive operation is fantastic, all new gear (although that does not bother me as I have my own kit) brand new compressor etc. They say they do Nitrox, but I can't confirm that, they certainly had some big oxygen tanks, but I did not see any way for mixing. I had some nice dives at Mainit point and Maricaban Island, it certainly is convenient for those sites. Dive staff were super friendly and helpful. I had to cut my trip short because of the typhoon which came in.
The resort is large for Anilao, the rooms are very spacious and well appointed with flat screen TV's and large beds. Only complaint would be a lot is in Korean with no English translation and there was no "in room" guide with things like meal times, room service etc.
The food was terrible or non-existant. it seems they just do breakfast which left a massive amount to be desired. If they served other meals, there was no hint of this, no menu, no buffet, nada!
The resort has 3 swimming pools of huge proportions, one heated by hot springs and covered, one fresh water (although it was not very clean) and one salt water.
The place was almost deserted, there were maybe two families there.
The resort does not own the sea front, consequently it is more like a deserted muddy plot of land at the sea front, not a problem for me, but if I took the wife along this would be a massive problem.
The staff were VERY polite, almost too polite if that's possible.
Other facilities were very good:
3 billard tables, countless karaoke rooms a hot spring fed sauna etc
The reception and dining area are very nice, 4 star hotel style, but again it was rather deserted with the gift shop closed.
I asked when they were going to open properly, and they said "Oh we are fully open"... Fully open and hardly any guests... it's like a ghost resort.
Personally, I like a resort where I can enjoy good diving and spend a relaxing afternoon with my wife in the pool. Eagle Point has everything I want and it's cheaper than Sea Springs. The only plus sea springs has is slightly better rooms, and easier access (you can park your car right next to your room).
Bottom line... this could be an Amazing resort, but it's not, it seems poorly maintained and lacks customers, hopefully it will pickup when the season starts early next year, but I won't be going back.
Hope that helps anyone interested.
